Isidora Timotijevic was born in Belgrade (Serbia) in 1997, and received her first violin lessons at the age of seven at the “Kosta Manojlovic” music school in Zemun. At the age of 14, she switched to the viola, and was tutored by Tomislav Milosevic. Since 2015, she has been studying for a bachelor degree with Professor Thomas Riebl at the Mozarteum University Salzburg. She also receives a scholarship from the International Academy of Music in Liechtenstein, where she participates in the intensive music weeks.

The young violist has won numerous prizes at national and international competitions, both as a soloist and as a chamber musician.

She has already performed with the “Deutsche Kammerakademie Neuss am Rhein”, the “Salzburg Chamber Soloists” and the “Camerata Salzburg”, and has performed in concerts in Brazil, China, Germany, Hong Kong, Peru, South Korea, Switzerland and Austria. Together with some fellow students, she recently founded the “Beija-flor Quartet”. In 2016 and 2017, Isidora Timotijevic participated in the chamber music festival “Musique à Marsac” in France, and in 2017 she took part in the “Eggenfelden klassisch” music festival, and in the FESTIVAL NEXT GENERATION in Bad Ragaz.
